Use integration by parts to find the integrals in Exercise.<br> ∫^3_0 3-x/3e^x dx.

Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

8.733046.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a definite integral $\int _0^3\:3-\frac{x}{3e^x}dx$ . We are asked to find the value of the given integral using integration by parts.

Using sum rule of integrals, we will get:

$\int _0^3\:3dx-\int _0^3\frac{x}{3e^x}dx$

We will use Integration by parts formula to solve our given problem.

$\int\ vdv=uv-\int\ vdu$

Let $u=x$ and $v'=\frac{1}{e^x}$ .

Now, we need to find du and v using these values as shown below:

$\frac{du}{dx}=\frac{d}{dx}(x)$

$\frac{du}{dx}=1$

$du=1dx$

$du=dx$

$v'=\frac{1}{e^x}$

$v=-\frac{1}{e^x}$

Substituting our given values in integration by parts formula, we will get:

$\frac{1}{3}\int _0^3\frac{x}{e^x}dx=\frac{1}{3}(x*(-\frac{1}{e^x})-\int _0^3(-\frac{1}{e^x})dx)$

$\frac{1}{3}\int _0^3\frac{x}{e^x}dx=\frac{1}{3}(-\frac{x}{e^x}- (\frac{1}{e^x}))$

$\int _0^3\:3dx-\int _0^3\frac{x}{3e^x}dx=3x-\frac{1}{3}(-\frac{x}{e^x}- (\frac{1}{e^x}))$

Compute the boundaries:

$3(3)-\frac{1}{3}(-\frac{3}{e^3}- (\frac{1}{e^3}))=9+\frac{4}{3e^3}=9.06638$

$3(0)-\frac{1}{3}(-\frac{0}{e^0}- (\frac{1}{e^0}))=0-(-\frac{1}{3})=\frac{1}{3}$

$9.06638-\frac{1}{3}=8.733046$

Therefore, the value of the given integral would be 8.733046.

One-Half the difference of a number and 15

slega [8]

Answer:

x - 15 ÷ 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it wants you to find the half of your answer after you find the difference, be sure to leave the two at the end of your equation. With that said, let's move into finding out what "the difference of a number and fifteen is". Whenever they tell you 'a number', it means they want you to put a variable, such as x, since you do not know the number and it could be any number. Now, the "difference" of something usually means...you guessed it, subtraction! Now that you've decoded your equation, you now know it means that x - 15 is the first part, and you can now put the one half right after it.

If this is confusing, I can explain further. :D
